The people in Chang'an City gathered at the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. Wei Yijie in the back hall was frightened and anxious!
When did these ant-people become so bold?
This is at the foot of the Emperor, an important place in the capital, and so many people can be gathered just because of one housemate. Is it possible that the Penal Department Yamen is about to stage the scene that happened to the Yuan Family of Daodefang not long ago?
Just thinking about this consequence, Wei Yijie shudders...
Fang Jun deserves death!
It's okay. What poem did you write?
Shocked and angry, Wei Yijie ordered the jailer to remove all his pictures on the wall! But in the end, it was just out of sight and out of mind. Liu Jie commanded a group of censors to publicize Fang Jun's poem, "
Zhenguan Weekly even published it with great fanfare. This song "Green Pine" spread quickly in Guanzhong as if it had wings, and has even begun to spread to all states and counties all over the world...
A generous and upright poem, a loyal minister who endures humiliation...
This is simply the most popular storybook in the world, but unfortunately, in this storybook, the Criminal Department and Wei Yijie have become the cruel and vicious villains who framed Zhongliang. They are already being scolded and everyone is shouting for beatings!
Wei Yijie fell down on the chair, his face gloomy.
Even if Fang Jun can be convicted this time and the Guanlong Group wins a great victory, Wei Yijie is destined to be ruined and eventually abandoned by the Guanlong Group to bear the wrath of the people and the emperor alone...
This is an era where reputation must be taken seriously. No matter how many dirty and sinister things you do in private, you must still show off your merits with a righteous face, and at least maintain a positive image on your face.
If you have a bad reputation, even merchants and common people will look down on you, let alone being an official...
"Shilang Wei, Fang Jun wants to confess!"
A jailer ran over in a hurry and out of breath, loudly reporting.
"Um?"
Wei Yijie was suddenly startled and then overjoyed!
As long as Fang Jun confesses, all the rumors outside will be self-defeating!
There is no such thing as loyal ministers or false accusations!
If we really framed a good person, then why was Fang Jun willing to confess even though there was no coercion, inducement, or torture?
Wei Yi stood up with a leap. He didn't have time to think about why Fang Jun wanted to confess, and quickly ordered: "Quick, quick, take all the four treasures of the study and follow me to the prison!"
"promise!"
Wei Yijie took the lead and headed directly to the prison with a large group of jailers, scribes and scribes.
In the duty room opposite, Zhang Yunji naturally saw the situation here clearly. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, what did Fang Jun do? We have made it clear that we will protect him from being tortured to extract a confession.
As long as he persists like this, even if he is still inevitably convicted in the end, he can still leave the world with a positive image of being forced and framed with this song "Green Pine".
As long as the reputation remains, a comeback in the future is not impossible.
But Fang Jun actually wants to confess now...
Zhang Yunji thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out what Fang Jun was up to. He immediately asked the clerk to deliver a message to Shangshu Liu Dewei, and he hurried to the prison.
When Liu Dewei received the report from Zhang Yunji, he was also puzzled.
He also got up and rushed to the prison...
Wei Yijie came to the prison in a hurry and saw Fang Jun lying on the bed. Two doctors were applying medicine to the wound behind his buttocks. At any rate, he was a second-grade high-ranking official and the current prince-in-law, Master Zaifu.
He was sentenced to death tomorrow and his injuries will be treated today.
As an official in the same palace, this is the minimum respect that must be paid. Even if you are unwilling in your heart and want to strangle Fang Jun to death, you must make this gesture on your face to show your magnanimity...
When you are in an officialdom, you have to control your emotions, and you are destined to miss out on grudges and grudges.
The anger in his chest was suppressed, and a smile appeared on his face. Wei Yijie looked caring: "Has Erlang's injury been healed?"
When Fang Jun saw Wei Yijie's hypocritical face, he was so disgusted that he wanted to vomit. You are not sure how you want to strangle me to death. Do you need to smile so brightly?
He said perfunctorily: "It's okay, I won't die for a while."
Wei Yijie: "Haha, that's good, that's good." If you die early and are reborn early, don't stay and harm others, okay...
Instructing the clerk to put the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk, Wei Yijie smiled and said: "The jailer said, Erlang finally figured it out? Oh, that's right! To be honest, I don't know much about Erlang's character and talent.
I have admired him for a long time, but I have never gotten close to him, which is a pity. The evidence in this case is conclusive. Even if I want to be lenient, it is impossible. We must maintain judicial justice and promote the authority of the Ministry of Justice... Erlang is a hero of the moment, so naturally
If you understand the reality, even if you bow your head and plead guilty, it will be nothing more than a demotion or a nobility at best. Is it possible that you can really let you pay for the life of the eldest grandson Dan? With Erlang's outstanding ability, it will not take three to five years to make a comeback.
, it is not difficult for an official to be reinstated."
Fang Jun raised the corner of his mouth: "Haha..."
What a bastard!
I really don't know how to decapitate. This world pays attention to birth and status. Although Changsun Dan is the legitimate son of the Changsun family, his status as the consort and Fang Xuanling's son is much higher. In addition, His Majesty's
To maintain, it is absolutely impossible to impose a "death sentence".
He still doesn't know that many people outside have spontaneously come to the Ministry of Punishment to rally and demonstrate. Under such circumstances, even if they beat Wei Yijie and other officials of the Ministry of Punishment to death, they would not dare to sentence Fang Jun to death...
But you still want to be demoted, demoted, or reinstated?
What a liar!
As long as he confesses, it will be a stain on his political career that can never be erased. Fang Jun, who was a small bureaucrat in his previous life, understands better than anyone how important this stain is. A murderer still wants to hang out in the officialdom?
What nonsense...
Wei Yijie clicked his tongue and shut up helplessly.
He also felt that his words were empty and boring, and it was okay to deceive children. In front of frontier officials such as Fang Jun, speaking like this made him look incompetent...
I had no choice but to simply say: "I have feelings and I have no choice but to do so. If Erlang happily signs a confession, we will benefit from each other and be at ease with each other. If Erlang continues to resist, I will have to serve a severe sentence..."
If you can't get a favor, you have to bear the wrath of your boss, and Erlang has to suffer physical pain, so why bother?"
He said yes, yes, his mouth went dry, but he found that Fang Jun squinted his eyes slightly and seemed to be falling asleep... He couldn't help but feel very annoyed.
Didn't you ask for pen and paper to write down a confession?
Wei Yijie simply shut his mouth.
Fang Jun squinted his eyes, took out his ears, and muttered: "I haven't been in a good mood these past two days. I'm probably angry. My ears are a little unreal. When others are talking, someone's side is buzzing like flies.
fly……"
Wei Yijie's face instantly turned the color of pig liver. He glared at Fang Jun angrily and walked away.
He couldn't stay any longer. This stick was obviously just for his own amusement. Everyone has a bloody heart, right? Even if he really wanted to get Fang Jun's confession as soon as possible, he couldn't afford to be ridiculed for fun!
I can’t hold back my face...
But as soon as he turned around and walked to the door, he saw Liu Dewei, the Minister of Punishment, and Zhang Yunji, the right minister, coming one after another.
Wei Yijie was slightly stunned, so he had to stop, salute Liu Dewei, and said: "I have seen Liu Shangshu... I wonder what the minister is doing here?"
A large group of people are gathering outside. You, the Minister of Punishment, can't calm down the emotions of those people, so why are you running into the prison?
Although you must be blamed for this matter, as the Minister of Punishment, you are also the person directly responsible, okay?
Liu Dewei snorted, turned a blind eye to Wei Yijie, walked past him, and came to the cell.
You little bastard has made me lose face in front of His Majesty, and now I'm looking at provoking a civil uprising and causing big trouble, so why do I need to give you face?
Zhang Yunji followed closely behind. Looking at Wei Yijie's embarrassed expression, he chuckled and said teasingly: "I am accompanying Liu Shangshu to have a look. Be careful of someone jumping over the wall and using ruthless means to extract a confession, haha..."
He walked past Wei Yijie and chased Liu Dewei into the prison.
Wei Yijie’s face turned livid!
Mother!
You're all waiting to see my joke, right? We'll see!
He wanted to leave, but felt it was wrong. Fang Jun should have had the intention to sign a confession, otherwise what would the people do if they came to the Four Treasures of the Study? Once he left, it would be better if he left, but if Liu Dewei and Zhang Yunji persuaded Fang Jun to change
Wouldn't it be a big deal if you made up your mind?
After thinking about it, Wei Yijie turned back again.
We can't let these two old guys mess up our affairs...
Liu Dewei entered the prison, looked at Fang Jun lying on the bed with a smile, and asked: "Has Erlang's injury gotten better?"
Fang Jun didn't want to see the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice who was swinging around and had no attitude. He slowly got up from the bed, looked at the four treasures of the study on the desk, and nodded to a scribe: "Practice ink!"
Liu Dewei was slightly stunned, looked at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and thought to himself, what does Fang Jun want to do?
"promise!"
The clerk quickly stepped forward and rolled up his sleeves, poured water from the water tank into the grinding table, held the ink block and slowly rotated it at a slightly inclined angle to grind it gently, and then pushed the grinded ink into the inkstone... The movements were standardized,
Pleasing to the eyes.
Fang Jun praised: "The craftsmanship is good!"
The clerk smiled and said: "Thank you very much for the compliment, Erlang! Please come!"
He loosened the ink block and stepped aside, feeling quite proud in his heart. The person in front of him was one of the few calligraphy masters in the Tang Dynasty. It was an honor to be able to grind ink for him, not to mention getting a compliment?
Fang Jun held the pen with his right hand, held the sleeve of his right hand with his left hand, and dipped the inkstone into the inkstone. He looked at the snow-white rice paper spread on the table, pondered for a moment, and sighed: "This paper... is a bit small."
The scribe was slightly startled.
Why do these words... sound so familiar?
When he saw Fang Jun looking around, he turned around leisurely and walked towards the wall that he had just shoveled away yesterday... The scribe suddenly woke up!
Mother!
Could this stick be causing trouble again and write a poem on the wall?
